Deysha,
Can you possibly find out what the delay on my car from shipping is?
It was built on 08/01/12 and had an original ETA of 08/11/12. There has been no update in the system since it was built on 08/01.
The car only has to travel about 30 miles to my dealer.
My patience is running thin!
Thanks

I've read messages on this board as well as others where people have received their cars that were built well after mine. These cars had to ship across the country and mine has to travel all of about 30 miles from the plant.
All Ford can tell me is that it was produced on 08/01/12 and it has an ETA to my dealer of 08/11/12.
I've made numerous inquiries to my dealer and to Ford customer service and still have not received a credible answer other than to be patient.
Customer service recommended having my dealer reach out to the regional rep for assistance. The regional rep told my dealer (on 08/29) that the car would be released on Friday, August 31st and would be to my dealer no later than Tuesday, September 4th.
Guess what - it is now September 8th and the car still has not been delivered nor has the status been updated in the computer - it still shows an ETA of 08/11/12.
This all has me wondering if there hasn't been a post production problem with it and it is off being repaired somewhere. Is it possible it was damaged between the time it was built and before it was shipped and now it is off being repaired and repainted???
The lack of answers from Ford is troubling and quite honestly, inexcusable.

there seems to be MANY more stories of people being jerked around,lied to and cheated by the vermin scumsucking dealers .than happy purchases . Will this never end ? I hold Ford responsible for this also . These criminals are the only contact for buyers . It shouldnt be a stressful ,horrible experience when making a major expenditure . Dealers profit greatly and provide littlle if any actual service for most sales . I for one would be willing to drive a bit and pick a car up from the manufacturer . I hate liars !

I never had any problems with my dealership so far! They have been spot on with Deysha's records! But I WOULD be PO'd if that was my car getting driven! Also remember no **** decals or the dealership is paying ME for their publicity!

Out of some miracle, car was delivered Friday night. Picked it up this Saturday. Here's some pics.
Thanks to Deysha and Jeff 05fordgt, for their help, and lending an ear. You two really rock!
Take Care!

Does anyone know the Flat Rock plant schedule for the rest of the year?
I heard they were going to be closed from the middle of November through the first week of January. Anyone have the dates?

We are all anxious here but from the looks of it you have ~a month or so left, that's nothing!

Reality Check
Deysha,
Sent youa PM. By the time this is over I will have traded all the hair on my head for a few ulcers. I am a wreck with all the ambiguity.
